About Me
¡Saludos, Amigos! My love for Disney goes beyond attractions and shows. It's rooted in storytelling, cultural details, and the way the parks bring people together. I'm especially drawn to the traditions and thoughtful touches that make a Walt Disney World vacation feel intentional and memorable, from classic attractions to those once-in-a-lifetime experiences that make a trip truly special. Living between two cultures and languages, I love helping Guests from all over the world plan vacations that feel approachable, exciting, and stress-free. I believe the best Disney trips balance preparation with wonder, and I enjoy guiding others through the details so they can focus on making memories once they arrive. Helping you feel confident, informed, and excited about your Walt Disney World vacation is what brings me the most joy!
About My Family
As Olaf would say, some people are worth melting for, and for me, that’s my family and my chosen family. I've been lucky enough to experience the magic of Walt Disney World with my brother, parents, grandparents, my husband (truly the Kristoff to my Anna), and my best friend, and every trip with them has been special in its own way. From laughing through attractions and sharing favorite traditions to ending the day together under the fireworks, Walt Disney World has been the backdrop for some of our most meaningful memories. Experiencing the parks through the eyes of the people I love has shaped how I see Disney today, and it's something I'll always treasure.
About My Disney Experience
The first time I walked through the gates of Magic Kingdom Park was in January 1999 when I was only two years old. My dad held me up as my mom filmed my reaction, and as she zoomed in, I looked at her and said, “Mommy, I want to go to the castle.” That moment was the beginning of a lifelong connection. Since then, I've been lucky enough to return to the Walt Disney World Resort year after year, watching it grow and evolve right alongside me. Experiencing the parks from different perspectives has deepened my appreciation for the care, creativity, and storytelling behind every detail. Helping others discover what makes this place so meaningful to me is one of my greatest joys! After all, the Walt Disney World Resort isn't my “home away from home”. To me, it is just home.
